Every year the City creates a capital works program to be completed within the financial year. This program includes upgrades, renewals and environmental maintenance projects across the 415 parks and reserves that the City manages.
Of these 415 parks and reserves, less than 15% of them have an official name registered with Landgate. Registering place names with Landgate is important to ensure a singular recognisable name is given - allowing residents, emergency services, map providers and travelers to find our parks.
In order to systematically name all of our parks and reserves, the City has introduced a process to name a park when it appears within our capital works program. This means as work is completed at a park, the name is registered with Landgate and signs are installed.
Parks that will be going through the naming process in the 2024/25 financial year include:
- Alexandria Park, Canning Vale
- Barson Park, Thornlie
- Bottlebrush Park, Thornlie
- Carabeen Park, Madington
- Cardingotn Park, Huntingdale
- Haven Park, Thornlie
- Ospringe Park, Gosnells
- Pallinup Park, Gosnells
- Pinaster Park, Canning Vale
- Redfox Park, Huntingdale
- Sorebllo Park, Southern River
The City wishes to inform our residents of the naming of these parks.
